psvar expansion with %v



    Hi all :)

    If I do this:

    psvar[1]=%{$'\e[33m'%}
    PS1=%1v[%y]>

    I get the following prompt:

    %{^[[33m%}[tty1]>

    Obviously, not what I want (a brown colored prompt). But if I do
this:

    psvar[1]=%{$'\e[33m'%}
    PS1=$psvar[1][%y]>

    then I get what I want...

    How can I use psvar and %v to get a readable PS1 *but* use escape
sequences at the same time? I'm using zsh 4.2.5 (i686-pc-linux-gnu)

    Thanks a lot in advance :)
